Bole is a small, largely rural village in the district of Bassetlaw in Nottinghamshire, England. It sits near the banks of the River Trent not far from the county boundary with Lincolnshire, giving it a quietly riverside character and easy access to nearby towns such as Gainsborough and the industrial site at West Burton.

The village has an agricultural heritage and a compact, village-community feel, with low-lying floodplain and wetland habitats nearby (often referred to locally as Bole Ings) that are important for wintering and passage birds. Its mix of countryside scenery, wildlife interest and proximity to regional transport links makes it typical of small Nottinghamshire villages that balance farming, conservation and commuter life.
